I am not too sure where the summer has gone but its not very warm.  Its the first of July today I have a dentist appointment this month but I don't know if they are taking patients yet due to this virus I haven't heard anything I guess I will  have to ring the place this week to see if they are taking people again I have been lucky in comparison to some who have had to do some diy on their teeth appaarently which is bad news I think there are emergency treatment but maybe you have to wait and when you're in pain the last thing you want to do is wait.  I hope I haven't spoken too soon and this lockdown situation sees me through to an appointment with no pain hardly.  My teeth are not in good condiiton though the years and lack of disciplined cleaning have made sure bits have fallen off now and again and I have had to have filling after filling and the rough edges are quite uncomfortable to touch sometimes. I have not been out today really as its a bit damp but I guess...

I am still having problems with the DWP but maybe not as much as other folk who seem to be being compelled to work for they meagre job seekers allowance compelled to work for nothing so they are being exploited by companies in the name of work experience.  Work experience is a good thing if it helps someone find a job and it gives people the flexibility of trying things out but claiments should not be made to work for their benefits.  Its hard enough being on benefits never mind being exploited by the government and companies I probably need to find out more about this racket before I can tell people who are on it to seek more advice.  The people who I know who are on it are probably a bit naive and I would hate to think they are being taken advantage of by the DWP. No one turned up for the foodbank again I guess it will be like that for the rest of the summer I need to find alternative voluntary work really its not that easy it seems

The DWP really enjoy giving people stress I believe, this time they have sent me two different forms for the one purpose I am not sure which one to fill in.  I guess I could ask them but why are they causing confusion is it just for the sake of it?  Having these forms to fill in is stressful enough especially when they come out of the blue.   I have tried to seek advice elsewhere on the above matter and have other issues to deal with right now but have had no luck so far.  There is still no word from the DWp about when I am suppose to having a medial its getting on for 3 months now since the process which is stressful has started I feel like I am in limbo and my health si not improving either which does not help

Here we go again got the DWP giving me grief again, it has only been a year or so since they were at it before.  This time the hastle has come out of the blue with no warning which is a risky tactic to take with people especially ones who may have life threatening conditions it could push them over the edge the whole stress of the thing could, it is hard to to believe that such people or is it the organisation is in charge of what is called welfare.  I am on the sick at the moment I dread to think how they treat folk who are not on the sick well I guess I have heard about the stupid sanctions such as when people are on training courses they are sanctioned for not going to the jobcentre the system is a shambles it seems me.  Someone one day will have to clean up this mess and its going to take a lot of money and time.  I guess in the meantime I have to just suffer the thing and the stress and anxiety it causes to my health, I was not able to concentrate on what the ...
